It's exceptionally hard to check every question and every answer ever posted. Especially since even old questions get new answers all the time and new questions are posted That's just to reinforce what @GeorgFritzsche said - lack of feedback is not proof of being correct. Or even if we assume it's "correct", doesn't mean it's useful. A burning bus technically moves if pushed down a hill. Doesn't make it a useful mode of transportation. Some answers are bad | |
